Christmas time is the BEST time of the entire year. NOTHING, and I mean absolutely NOTHING tops it. (Sorry Thanksgiving and Spooky Season….) It means time spent with family, fun parties and gatherings, and SNOW (unless you live in Florida lol). This is my favorite time of year to style for, especially when it comes to Christmas holiday dresses.
Every Christmas I looked forward to picking out my holiday dress for the year. I needed it for birthday, Christmas, and December piano recitals. As I got older I had even more fun making the dresses, giving me more freedom on what I could wear.
The best time of year is here again, and if you’re like me you’re probably wondering what dresses you need for this season. This post will share with you the 7 essential Christmas holiday dresses you should ALWAYS keep on hand to be prepared for the season, with up to date trend style guides to pull together your holiday looks.
Christmas Holiday Dresses
Luxe Emerald Green Christmas Holiday Dress
This is my personal fave must-have dress for the holidays. A luxe velvety feel paired with an emerald green dress can’t top any other option for a sophisticated look. She is perfect for a night out downtown, a classy dinner, or whatever formal holiday event you may be attending. No doubt you’ll leave people valuing you with utmost respect in this look. These pieces in the style guide are from Revolve, but are easy to sub out with accessories and shoes from places like Target. (I mean hey, Target style brings their best pieces big time at Christmas).
Classic Red Christmas Holiday Dress
While an emerald green dress is beautiful and elegant, how can you have a complete collection of holiday dresses without a red dress? I am a firm believer that while having a little black dress is important, having a go-to simple red dress is just as important. This year, styling with sparkly accessories and fur coats will keep you on trend and warm while staying stunning in your red Christmas dress.
Long Sleeve Black Dress
While keeping a black dress in your closet is a given, for the holidays you NEED a long sleeve black dress. A short long sleeve black dress is key in creating several outfits to dress up or down for this holiday season in order to look classy and chic. You can never go wrong with this look, there are endless styling options.
Winter White Christmas Holiday Sweater Dress
Looking for that super nice winter white look? A winter white dress is a MUST in your Christmas holiday dress collection. Paired with light silver accessories and winter white shoes, coat, and bag, you’ll be serving everyone a white Christmas with your look. Of course with a winter white look, you need ALL the essentials. The style guide for this look gives you the complete layout of what you’ll need.
Plaid Christmas Holiday Dress
During the Christmas holiday season, you’ll need a few more casual dresses in your wardrobe for attending events with family and friends. Find yourself a comfy casual plaid dress for this occasion, for those events that you’ll be enjoying company in home by the fireplace.
This post was all about the 5 essential Christmas dresses you need in your closet this holiday season! I hope you find this helpful, and hope you are ready to be fully styled and ready to go for all your seasonal gatherings.
